In The Vault last week I was tanking the boss and able to save my healer using Clemency.
assuming no interrupts, i really think that precast stoneskin is still more efficient (when tanking) since it only costs 600-700 mana and you need not worry on overheals nor the timing since you can cast stoneskin before during or after the tank buster (not all healers precast stoneskin)

again assuming no interrupts clemency is fine.. but will guzzle most of your mana.. you'll worry on overheals and if you cast it early it'll just go to waste
